in the head by the fact that trees in the
country where the blast had full sweep
did not suffer as much as from the south
wind. An old resident asserts the trees

the trees are braeed by nature against

Custody at Elk Piont-KecOvery OF
Stolen Property.
The burglarious individual who Mon
day night entered Bader's boarding
house end Tuesday night entered
George Browns residence was arrested
yesterday morning at Vermillion by the
sheriff OF Clay county and Mr.. Browns
watch, diamond and money recovered.
His name is Peter Winter. He is about
twenty-five years old, hes a red face, a
light mustache and is well dressed
Yesterday morning while Conductor
Jackson's train was running rapidly
between this oity and Jim river the ar
rested party caught the railing
of the cars and swung himself
upon the platform with the ease of an
expert. he would not pay his fare and
Conductor Jackson put him off. Per.
seryeripg, he once more boarded the
train and was carried to Vermillion.
There he was again snmmarily bounced.
At that station Conductor jackson re-
ceived q telegram from Marshal Bren-
nan, of this city, notifying him of the
Brown burglary and asking him to look
out for suspects. jackson communicated
with the sheriff of Clay county and he
arrested Winter or sight. In his pris-
oner's possession were found four gold
watches, a diamond pin. $145 in money,
a revolver, a burglars kit, a bottle OF
o%hloroform and bottle OF ether. He
had On the straw hat taken from Bader's
house. Among the articles were Browns
watch and diamond pin.
After Winter was arrested Sheriff
Boyee, OF Elk Point, appeared on the
scene in pursuit OF q burglar who had
operated in Elk Point Sunday night and
q portion of the plumber showed that
Winter was the man Boyee was after.
He was taken to Elk Point and after a
preliminary examination was committed
for trial in default of $4,000 bail. 1t is
probable that he will go to the peniten-
tiary for the Elk Point crime. Marshal
Brennan and George Brown went to
Vermillion to-day and Mr.. Brown iden-
titled and brought away his property.
Winter was in Yankton Monday and
Tuesday. At Isaac Piles store he
bought a pair Of mocoasins and there
Isaac Waterbury had a conversation
with him. He was posted regarding
Yankton and was familiar with the
| NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. murder case and
gave many details of that affair, There
are those who think he Is one of the
Wintermute boys, more from the name
he g~ave-Peter Winter-than anything
else. This is only conjecture.

A Suggestion from an Ex.soidIer-
Division Prospers in Jerauld
County.
a LDIE SUGGESTS.
Parker, Dakota, Aug. 9-To the
trends of division and admission of De-.
kota to, the union Of states: I would
respectfully call your attention and
earnestly solicit your aid and co-opera-
ton in this move which I verify believe
will do more towards accomplishing the
end desired than the same amount Of
money will do in any other way. That
is, that all the counties of Dakota
should by some means make arrange
ments to send all the old soldiers OF the
late war to st. Louis to the national en-
campment to be held there il Septsm-
Der, 1887, There are soldiers in the ter
ritory from nearly all regiments that
were raised for the krmy and by their
going there they will meet and mingle
with comrades from every northern
state, and in fact all states that had
soldiers in the union army, and by so
doing the soldiers, and the people OF the
states through them, will learn the true
situation and wants of the soldier and
the people OF Dakota.
1t will not be possible for the veterans
of the war to meet, mingle and converse
with the fifteen Oh twenty thousand
soldiers whsBh we have in this territory
that could be sent to the encAmpment
and not gain their sympathy, enlist them
in the cause of their d~isfranchised COM
rade and brother. They will be ready
when they go back to their homes in
their different states to insist that their
members of congress see that the SOL
diers and people of Dakota have ell the
privileges that the American citizens
have in the states in which they live,
regardless of political party or policy.
Ii this move could be made by all the
counties. transportation would be but
very light. Railroads would give the
lowest rates that are ever given to any
people. How shall this money be raised ?
is q very proper question. There are
different ways that it could be done.
One way is by q series OF entertainments
such as harvest festivals and s%oclals,
which could be held in every school
district, town and church, for there can
be no more worthy cause than to assist
the defenders of this republic to go to
the reunion and onoe more meet their
comrades and officers and take a review
of the nearly FIVE years that many of
them were at the front. IT by this means
there should not be funds enough OBJ.
tanned, then call on your county com.
mIssioners for an appropriation sufficient
to pay their transportation, and when
you do this bear in mind that you are
making o long stride toward division
and statehood, and also giving a justly
deserved and we'll earned treat to oil the
soldiers that fought through the many
hard battles for the republic and the
rights and freedom that are enjoyed by
the citizens, OF the many Of which are
at this time denied.
Hoping that these few suggestions
may be- OF some use to the CAUSE OF Da-
kota and the veterans therein,
Very Respectfully,

A Surveying Party to Take the Field
Next MOnday-Nin Build to Yankton
First.
Relative to the Omaha & Yankton
railroad o reporter of the Omaha World
has interviewed its secretary, James
Dillon, and found that while that official
was averse.to speaking of the intentions
! of the company he said that the COM
pany was going quietly on and was not
building q road through the newspapers.
He stated that a surveying party will
be put in the field next Monday and that
1t was proposed to build from Omaha
north to Yankton or to some point west
and thence to divide and b uild two roads
through Dakota. In any event the road
will reach Yankton. The president is
now assistant attorney general OF Mas.
sachnsetts, and his term does not expire
until January. The treasurer ia now in
London, and it cannot be told how much
will be done this year toward building
the road, He added that in two years
the company expected to have as large a
system as the Milwaukee or North west
ern.
1t is Rossiped in railway orioles that
Fred l. Ames, OF the Union Pacific, and
Massachusetts friends are backing the
Omaha & YaHkton line. Directors of
the latter road disclaim any such rela-
ton so far as they know. "The Omaha
q Yankton," says one of the directors,
will build only north from Omaha at
first, but it necessary it can command
the capital to build south and east also,
and have u great system OF its own
reaching to Chicago and to the galf."
From this it wall be accepted as settled
that the Omaha & Yankton project ID Il
live he and that the line to Yankton is
the beginning of a great system. Ulti-
mately the old dream OF q railroad from
Yankton to the gulf may be realized
through this corporation. With our
northern connections it would make o
continuous rail line from Canada on the
north to foreign waters on the south.
